Product Description
The Epiphone Futura Series is all about next‑gen performance for contemporary guitar players. Whether you’re gigging on the reg, recording or shooting content for your socials, these Inspired by Gibson models deliver powerful tone, striking looks and some seriously flexible features. The Epiphone Futura RD Custom is one of the coolest of the lot, taking that cult‑fave mid‑’70s shape firmly into modern territory.
Built to turn heads
Before we dig into the specs, let’s talk about that ‘Chromashift’ finish. It flips and shimmers under the lights, making sure you stand out on stage or on camera. Paired with classy 7‑ply body top binding, a bound Ebony fingerboard and stylish pearloid split‑block inlays, this Epiphone Futura Series guitar is designed to make a statement.
Plays as good as it looks
This isn’t gimmicky spec‑sheet fluff — Epiphone has loaded the Futura RD Custom with proper, player‑ready upgrades. Stainless steel frets mean long life and slick bends, while the compound‑radius fingerboard makes chording effortless and lead work lightning fast. Add an ultra‑comfortable neck profile, and you’ve got a guitar that feels instantly familiar from the first pick‑up.
Hardware you can rely on
You won’t have to worry about tuning slips either. A Graph Tech nut works alongside the LockTone Tune‑O‑Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece to keep things rock solid while boosting sustain. Up top, locking Grover Rotomatic tuners make restringing this high‑octane axe an absolute doddle. And thoughtful touches like Posi‑Lok strap buttons mean it’s ready for real‑world stage action straight out of the included gig bag.
Tone for days!
Driving this RD Custom are Epiphone’s ProBucker Ignite humbuckers, exclusive to the Futura Series. They dish out bold, articulate tones that cut straight through the mix — perfect for massive hard‑rock riffs and molten metal solos. Push/pull controls unlock coil‑splitting and phase switching for a wide tonal palette. From thick crunch to crisp, expressive cleans, it’s all right there at your fingertips.
Features
- Modern “C” Mahogany neck: Comfortable and instantly familiar, built for everything from chunky riffs to fast lead work.
- 10”-14” compound radius fingerboard: Makes chords easy to fret down low while offering smooth, bend‑friendly playability higher up the neck.
- 22 stainless steel, medium jumbo frets: Ideal for expressive bends and vibrato, with stainless steel providing a slick, glass‑like feel and long‑term durability.
- Epiphone ProBucker Ignite pickups: Deliver powerful tones with excellent clarity, ideal for hard rock, metal and beyond. Push/pull controls unlock coil‑split and phase options for added versatility.
- LockTone bridge & tailpiece: Keep everything rock‑solid, enhancing sustain and preventing accidental tuning slips when you’re digging in.
- Posi-Lok strap buttons: Ensure your guitar stays securely strapped on, without the need for bulky additional hardware.
- Included premium gig bag: Perfect for players on the go, keeping your RD protected between rehearsals, gigs and late‑night jam sessions.
